Looks like a nice session Wayne. Yoke is improving rapidly and farmers look strong buddy.

what are the comp plans for the rest of the year?


I don't know about "rapidly" improving, but I'm certainly progressing!

I'm doing the Guildford charity comp in 2 weeks. My name is also down for Will's intermediate comp (October?). That's all at the moment.

another great session mate. your yoke has improved loads. how are the injuries?


Yes, another good session - apart from the whack in the face, obviously!! I'm OK. The lip is a nuisance when eating and brushing teeth, but that's about all.

I'm glad I'm not alone in the "got hit in the face while trying to press a yoke" club!!!

Friday 24th April...

I was a bit rushed, due to work commitments.


LOG - reps from chest

115 - 2 reps, 2 reps, 2 reps


DEAD LIFTS standing on blocks

warmed up to 246 for 1 rep


AXLE DEAD LIFTS

Wanted to have a play with these, because I've got 240 for reps in my Guildford charity comp on 3rd May.

130 for 1 rep
170 for 1 rep
210 for 1 rep
240 failed twice

These felt really awkward and I didn't feel in a strong lifting position at all. Maybe my back had nothing left after pulling a 246 block dead? One hand is 2 inches further away from the body than the other. Totally different to a standard dead lift. I now know, however, that my grip is strong enough to hold onto a 240 axle. My target for the comp is now 1 rep!!


SQUATS (raw)

built up to

180 - 1 rep
200 - 1 rep
202.5 - 1 rep


Wanted to do more, but ran out of time!

nice session wayne. I think there might be a few no reppers on the axle dl so if you get your rep there should be some points in it.

I agree.

They changed the event from oly bar to axle, but kept the weight the same!

Today...


POWER CLEANS with small diameter discs (10Kg) on

103.5 - 3 reps, 3 reps, 3 reps


WEIGHTED CHINS

BW + 20.5 - 3 reps, 3 reps


110 ATLAS STONE without tacky (don't own any!)

5 singles with a short rest inbetween each lift onto a platform just below chest height.

Although we have several stones we don't really have a satisfactory platform. I use a small keg on top of a larger keg. Far from ideal.


PLATE PINCHING

Crap! I was really strong on these last week!


HANGS FROM AXLE

BW + 40 - 13 seconds, 10 seconds


I wanted to do tyre flip, but it was too wet.

No, thumbed. The grip seemed OK - the lift just felt all wrong!
